We beat Oxford we are still fourth. All those below can sort themselves out. If Halifax or Gateshead make 7th they'd be exhausted opponents at the JDS.
Our points tally is amazing as were the other play off competitors results today. At present we're 12 points ahead of Oldham and 16 Rochdale. Is this really happening?

These are the days my friends.

These are the days!

I really can’t see a knackered Gateshead side getting 9/9 this week, they will drop points somewhere so IMO as long as we beat Oxford next Saturday then we’ll get 4th & probably Halifax at home a week on Weds. Barnet & Bromley deserve top 3 & now have that in the bag.

[Saughall Robin]

If we beat Halifax (H), then Bromley (A), then possibly Barnet at Wembley, we utterly will have deserved it (promotion) 😉

Easy-peasy eh? 😂😂

That's certainly what it looks like at the moment - revenge over a knackered Halifax side with no Milli Alli to bail them out will be so sweet.

Halifax might not make it - don't rule out Southend quite yet!

Southend different proposition to a knackered Halifax. Without the10 point deduction right up there.

[MarpleAlty]

A win should do it for Halifax I reckon, they'll fancy themselves to get it done at 'home' to Ebbsfleet.

I fancy Ebbsfleet for at least a point actually. 🤔🤞

Oldham 'go' to Fax and they're half-arsed at the best of times - it'll be even less when they finally meet.

UPDATED AFTER TONIGHT'S RESULTS: WE CAN FINISH NO LOWER THAN 6TH

With Halifax dropping points at 'home' to Ebbsfleet, the lowest we can now finish is 6th. Highest is 4th.

It remains that if we win on Saturday we will finish top 5. If we win and Gateshead drop any points tomorrow or Saturday then we will finish 4th.

If we draw on Saturday then we will still finish top 5 if either of these happen. (If both happen we'll be 4th).

• Solihull fail to win
• Gateshead drop four points, or three if our goal difference stays higher

If we lose on Saturday then a top five finish would require either of the following (top four if both happen):

• Gateshead drop at least five points, or four if our goal difference remains higher.
• Solihull fail to win.

Or Oldham or Aldershot 

I'm hoping Halifax just squeak over the line. Last thing we need is an in-form team steaming into the playoffs on a sudden run of form. As things stand, we have the best form in the top seven while Halifax are running on fumes. Let's keep it that way!

[Wilmslow Alty]

UPDATED AFTER TONIGHT'S GAME: 4TH PLACE IS IN OUR HANDS

With Aldershot taking all three points in a very unconvincing 1-0 win against a ten men Gateshead with no recognised goalkeeper for almost the entire second half, the final playoff spot is still up for grabs. For us, we can finish no lower than 6th. Highest is 4th - and now looking more likely.

It's now the case that if we win on Saturday we will finish 4th.

If we fail to win on Saturday then 5th place will require either of these to happen (4th if both happen):

• Solihull fail to win
• Gateshead fail to win (a win for Gateshead and a draw for us would put them level on points but above us either on goal difference or goals scored)

Hope Halifax get the point they need . In the play offs if Aldershot can reproduce the form that saw off Stockport and Swindon they can beat anyone .  Sarfend and Heed more dangerous too in my opinion. Don't believe Fax can reach their levels tbh. ( yes i know we need to win too )
